fuzzzerd ,

Great movie. In this case, at end of this one you can have assets and apparently also tell your friends what you’re up to.

I would guess they accept cash offers regardless of credit score?

TheRedSpade ,

That’s up to the seller, so generally yes.

Mango , in Jeff's magic money machine

Well if everyone has a price, I’m gonna get that girl!

Surely the answer to this is to buy really short term options. Bad case is you lose all the money and get a billion. Good case is that you make even more money.

They said no gambling

YtA4QCam2A9j7EfTgHrH ,

Wouldn’t that be classified as “investing” at least according to the government.

Genie comes from a time when offering any monetary loan is considered usury, doesn’t care about your governments made of mortals.

Investing is not gambling by any definition.

Crashumbc ,

Short term options, are considered gambling by pretty every investing expert…

CheesyFox , in Bacon tho

yeah, yummy meat. I like it a lot. Sometimes i salt it than dry it myself, and god, does it taste delicious. I might be bothered by the cruelty of all this meat industry, but guess what, if i were to choose, i’d rather be a farm pig. Anything actually that does not comprehend the cruelty of this reality, and i’m not talking about farms here. Also, unlike most of us they go away quickly.

P.S. fyi, latest studies show that plants might also feel the pain. Sorry to disappoint you guys, but it seems like we are just doomed to bring more suffering in this world. You better find a way to cope with this before it became more researched.

ReakDuck ,

I think most people dont even care about pain. CO2 is rising and we are all going to die. We eat too much meat without thinking either. Its nonsense to eat that much meat. Once a month is perfectly fine.

CheesyFox ,

If you care about CO2 that much, go strangle a billionaire or two, or, i don’t know, go change how our whole grocerie system works, because if you didn’t know, everything we find at stores is produced with great margin. Most of the product simply being destroyed simply to keep the prices where they are.

I certainly don’t care about CO2. Why? “We all die”? No, silly, some of us will (both of us most certainly), but don’t underestimate our species’ adaptability. And you know what, it’s fucking beautiful because eight billion is a bit too much. That’s a perfect self regulation kinda thing.

Its nonsense to eat that much meat. Once a month is perfectly fine.

Its nonsence to eat such overprocessed food as some of you vegans do i could say. Not that i would mean it. All I’m saying, the amount of any type of food is a matter of personal preference, And since we both live at the time when we could afford such a luxurious thing as an ability to choose what to eat, and not just consume whatever we were able to find/produce, i would like to try to enjoy this little bliss. Fuck you guys for even attempting to ruin it for me, and then telling me what to do, you brave don quixotes fighting your imaginary windmills.

we can’t live without plants

some say we can’t live without meat

Just buy some commercial property, island, luxury house that is worth 100M, it can be done in less then a week. 3 weeks left to think and organize how to spend 1 billion in 1 day.

Mataresian ,

No you’re getting somewhere. Buy 1B in property put it in a company. Then use that as a mortgage to get a higher loan to buy some more. This way you can in addition avoid paying taxes.

AstralPath , in Jeff's magic money machine

I’d spend 100M in a month easily. Especially after I’ve bankrolled GrapheneOS, Ladybird and all my favourite FOSS projects. They also didn’t say anything about charity which IMO isn’t gifting. Once I feel like I’ve sufficiently contributed to society I’d buy a 50ft sailboat, pimp the shit out of it with solar and fuck off forever.

With the billion I’d establish a fund that pays out monthly to any projects I deem worthy and funds all food banks in my local area indefinitely.

Jolteon ,

Then maybe graphene OS would be able to get enough people to maintain non-pixel builds.

intensely_human ,

Especially after I’ve bankrolled GrapheneOS, Ladybird and all my favourite FOSS projects.

According to the book The Starfish and the Spider, which is about decentralized organization versus centralized organization, the Spanish Empire was able to defeat the previously-undefeatable Apache resistance by giving gifts of horses to some of the Apache leaders. It provided them status, creating a hierarchy, turning the Apache society into the sort of thing that could be destroyed in conventional battle.

Not saying it’s a very tight analogy, but I would be wary of changes in team culture resulting from a project going from volunteer based to well-funded.

Obviously open source projects need resources, such as servers and github accounts and all that, but spirits change when resource flows change, and projects excel or flub on spirit.

Why would I?

brygphilomena , in Jeff's magic money machine

Start a company.

Create a product.

Price it at $100m.

Buy said product from my own company.

PyroNeurosis ,

Could probably skip the second half. Overhead and salaries, etc. could put you out 100m.

Etterra , in Jeff's magic money machine

I’ll just invest that into a nice, stable, diverse stock portfolio then, and use the dividends to both live on and start a charitable non-profit. Building shelters, donating to politicians who champion human rights, education, healthcare, founding free clinics, angel investing in co-op businesses, and funding food banks isn’t giving away the money after all. it’ll be slow going but pay broader dividends down the road.

Chakravanti , in Jeff's magic money machine

Overpay for Monero.

The purchase would be the inflation skyrocket making those in…business…with Monero experience short buff on their previous conduct and product supply quality.

This incentivizes them into produce more products no one else can afford. It’ll buff their stock and increase their desperation to sell.

I’ll be stacked with cash to buy it all with gorram near zero oppositional bids.

If the market is short on Monero for that rate, I can buff the crypto with BTC and Bisq it to what actually fucking matters.

I think that wouldn’t quite count as an expense as it sounds more like simple currency exchange, similar to trading 100m dollars for 90 million euros.

intensely_human ,

So your play is own all the drugs?

Etterra , in Gen Alpha will elect MrBeast president and there's nothing you can do to stop it

I hate this trickle-down rich bitch so goddamn much.

zbyte64 , in Jeff's magic money machine

Buy a supreme Court justice with the first 100M, then the rest of the court with the other Billion.

stiephelando ,

You’re overpaying, justices aren’t that pricey

cm0002 ,

Yea, once you’ve bought all of the SC ig you could spend the remaining 99 million on Congress or something
